Heart Tonic Tea
Nature offers a pharmacy of plants specifically suited to support our emotional and cardiovascular well-being. This custom blend brings together four powerful botanicals; Hawthorn, revered for centuries as a "heart tonic"; Linden, known for its ability to relax tension and lower blood pressure; Holy Basil (Tulsi), an adaptogen that helps the body manage stress; and Rose, the queen of flowers that opens the heart chakra. Together, they create a synergistic infusion that is as nourishing as it is aromatic. It's a gentle, plant-based way to support your body's natural rhythm and restore balance.
Preparation Time: 5 Minutes
Cooking Time: 10 - 15 Minutes
Serves: 4
Ingredients
1 tbsp Hawthorn berries, dried
1 tbsp Linden leaf & flower, dried
1 tbsp Holy basil, dried
¼ tsp Rose petals, dried (food grade)
Directions
Combine the Herbs
In a clean glass bowl, mix all dried herbs together until well combined and evenly distributed.
Measure
Use 1 teaspoon of the herbal blend per 1 cup of boiling water.
Steep
Pour boiling water over the herbs in a teapot or mug. Cover with a lid and steep for 10 - 15 minutes. Covering helps trap the essential oils and prevents volatile compounds from escaping.
